Dr.
Neville Strumpf is widely recognized for her
outstanding contributions to the field of gerontology.
Although Dr. Strumpf is probably best known for
her work with her colleague, Dr. Lois Evans, on
the elimination of physical restraints in nursing
homes and hospitals, her remarkable career as ground-breaking
researcher, innovative teacher, caring mentor, as
well as top administrator, is unmatched.

nursing home, which grew out of her first hand
experiences of caring for the dying and their
families in that setting.
